Analyzing large data sets has become a key basis of competition, underpinning new waves of productivity growth and innovations, according to a report by McKinsey’s MGI (2011). In a recent report again by McKinsey (2016), Buried treasure: Advanced analytics in process industries, states that, “The full power of advanced analytics requires not only acquiring new technology and analytics solutions, but also helping people improve their expertise and adopt new ways of working”.
The Process Data Analytics and Machine Learning Short Course aims to introduce to the participants a suite of recently developed data science and machine learning tools that have strong applicability to process data analysis, monitoring, troubleshooting, feature discovery and inferential sensing. Course participants will learn these tools through lectures and mini-workshops. Computer routines will be provided for these mini-workshops.
The covered topics include
1 Introduction to Process Data Analytics
2 Unsupervised Learning
2.1 Principal component analysis
2.2 K-means clustering
2.3 Hierarchical clustering
2.4 Discrete or categorical data analysis
2.5 Dynamic component analysis
2.6 Process monitoring, diagnosis, and troubleshooting tools
3 SUPERVISED LEARNING
3.1 Linear discriminant analysis
3.2 Support vector machines
3.3 Partial least squares
3.4 Canonical correlation analysis
3.5 Dynamic canonical correlation analysis
3.6 Regularization via ridge regression, lasso, elastic nets
3.7 Neural networks – deep learning
4 ADDITIONAL TOPICS
4.1 Causality analysis
4.2 Kernel methods for nonlinear analytics
4.3 Case study: visualization, interpretation, and diagnosis
